The story is addictive and it was a fund read. I bought this first book from a local bookshop and now have ordered the other two books from the book depository. Can't wait to read the rest of the story. I wouldn't say the writing was particularly good, but it was targeted at teens anyway.show more

Collins has done an amazing job with weaving a colourful and detailed version of the world in the districts. All the characters you love basically die, but you can't blame the author at all. I couldn't put it down and have already started the second book. So exited to find out where this adventure goes.show more
